I saw an art exhibit today. There were three paintings that I liked, all from an Indonesian artist Oetje Lamno.
This is
Reaching the Kite, while this isn't my particular favorite, I can well imagine putting something like this in my hypothetical
other room, a room with matte cream walls.
This is
True Love Bone. I hadn't really put a lot of thought into this one. I like the title though. Very much. It is unfortunate that you can't
see the texture.
This is
Time Can Do So Much and is maybe the cleanest one in the series. I like how you see more and more details as you stare into it. The photo doesn't capture all the details, but I particularly like the hands on the clock--and the shadow of the twigs--and the pencil effect. Well, I liked the details. While there are many things going on, every bit seems to be in place. It has a whimsical feel devoid of chaos. I initially, couldn't make up my mind about the
message or
story. After looking more, my interpretation is that a boy falls asleep reading a book on life after finishing a lover's book. He then dreams about life--and love, as viewed and understood by a child. It is of innocent wonder. That is where the title comes in. Years from now, when he has experienced life--and love...it would be of a different picture.
